  • Private education episode very poor journalism

    If you are going to have this debate - please make it balanced. Do not solely rely on the biased opinions and selective fact picking of the leftist looney The Australian Institute

  • Have a listen!

    Loving this podcast. Maybe it’s the years of Today viewing but Sylvia’s voice is so soothing and easy to listen to. The topics feel incredibly relevant and timely and all questions are asked in a way that’s direct yet respectful which brings out such thoughtful insights from the guests. I genuinely look forward to each new episode.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Navigating a "Swirling Economy": Westpac CEO Anthony Miller’s Honest Verdict on the Budget, Housing Supply and More
Q: How do you view the impact of AI on jobs and productivity, and what will you do to prepare your workforce?
He acknowledges that some roles will change or disappear, but emphasizes that AI will also create new opportunities, and stresses the need to invest in people, skills, and responsible AI adoption to boost productivity while protecting workers.
Why Scott Phillips is Optimistic About Your Financial Future
Q: If we can say that getting ahead financially is harder for millennials and Gen Zers than it was for older generations, what advice would you give to parents for how best to help their kids?
Start by asking your kids what they're going through financially, give when it can have the most impact (not just at death), and focus on enabling them to reach key life milestones such as home ownership. The goal is to provide durable support that accelerates opportunity without creating dependency, while balancing the parent's own financial safety.
Is Private Education Worth It? with Skye Predavec
Q: How does government funding affect school choices and equity in Australia?
Systemic underfunding of public schools relative to private schools, combined with minimal regulation on private school fees, contributes to inequity and makes access to high-cost private schooling dependent on wealth rather than need.
Is Private Education Worth It? with Skye Predavec
Q: What factors should families consider when choosing a school aside from cost?
Funding levels for the school, the diversity of backgrounds, the mix of students, quality of sporting and extracurricular programs, and whether the school environment genuinely supports well-rounded education, beyond just branding or facilities.
Is Private Education Worth It? with Skye Predavec
Q: Is private education worth the money from an individual family perspective?
It can make sense for specific outcomes like elite sports or targeted tutoring, but when accounting for family income and broader societal effects, the overall value is not clearly superior compared to public or Catholic options.
